>>11256502>every Gundam kit I've built and seen are still entirely in Japanesethey've had dual eng/jp on the boxes & instructions for like a decade
I have no idea what this western Ideon is, do you mean pic related? It's a model kit from Ooshima, a Japanese company that mostly does realistic plastic models (cars, boats, planes) plus some Macross. Not western. Here's the page on their site, its japanese release was in october. Guess Amazon's shit is still on the boat.

newtype.us, mechawarehouse, gundamplanet etc
